NORWALK — Police are looking for the silver-haired man who they say swiped from a Stew Leonard’s shopping cart a Prada purse and a Gucci wallet worth thousands of dollars.

How much are the purse and wallet worth? The red Gucci wallet — with cash and credit cards inside — is valued at $4,800 and the purse, another two grand.

It’s an expensive lesson to learn in making sure purses and wallets are not left unattended, especially during the hectic holiday season.

Police say the suspect, who had graying, silver hair, was captured on video leaving the Main Avenue store. He appeared to be wearing a yellow parka and jeans. He then left the store in a white, four-door vehicle with a sunroof.

Although the incident happened on Dec. 2, on Monday police released a photo of the suspect.

Not familar with these high-end purses and wallets?

On its website, Neiman Marcus offers an assortment of styles, including a Leopard-style Prada purse with a red interior for $6,100. And for the holiday’s it’s offering “free rush delivery.”

On Gucci’s website, there is a nice selection of wallets with prices averaging around $500.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Officer Boyd at 203-854-3113 or at any of these contacts:
